PlayStation UK Boss Hints At What SCE Worldwide Studios Are Up To

Dylan Z of iGR writes: "We already know what Sucker Punch and Naughty Dog are up to. Uncharted PS4 was announced on the eve of the PS4 launch and inFamous: Second Son is due March 21st, 2014. SCEJ and Guerrilla Games released Knack and Killzone: Shadow Fall during the PS4 launch. And Evolution Studios’ Driveclub is supposedly due early 2014 after a delay took it out of the launch lineup. But that’s only a sampling of the stable that SCE has developing only for PlayStation."

i am not the biggest uncharted or the last of us fan at all i like the magical side of sony games like LBP , Sly cooper , Puppeteer , twisted metal etc and i am sure that i am very intelligent and i know what i am saying

english means smart all of the sudden XD i can be a genius and never know what English is ( i dont have to prove anything to anybody just sayin ) . ok that was my opinion if you disagree with it thats your problem if agree with it thats your problem too and yes i dont like shooters problem ?? every body hates something have a nice day grown ups XDDDDDD

Please, please, please even. Going from PS2 to PS3, the biggest and most shocking disappointment for me was the huge reduction in Japanese titles. There was such an amazingly diverse and rich library of content in the past and Japan seems worryingly lacking the confidence they once had.

Come on Japan!, some of the most amazing and unique concepts in console computing have originated from your shores.

Agree 100% on the Japan comment. It is like they all of the sudden forgot how to make games. It also does not help that each year the console market over there shrinks in favor of handhelds. I guess the Japanese just aren't home all that often, and when they are they are in front of a handheld and not a big screen HD screen.

Japanese get so stagnant, i cant stand the whole beta male look of jrpg's, and they are so corny. There are a few i like but alot of them are the same. I dont think jrpgs will do well in this era of time. Maybe we they will

Now just the waiting period.. I know it won't be a big of a gap like the ps3 was.. I got a ps3 on launch and although I loved it, I don't think I could wait that long for a game anymore.. Now I got a ps4 and besides some fps's there isn't a whole lot of other genre's.. Hope we don't have to wait as long, I done too much for that last-gen..

That's great - so what would be a surprise that I'd be pleased to see on the PS4 to complement that? One that might even make fans of a certain studio get a PS4 instead of (or at least as well as) an XboxOne?

For me, a sequel to Jet Set Radio Future , an (at least timed) exclusive to Sony this time, would be a great suprising move from them. It'd be their Sunset Overdrive.

I ask 'Where did the Sega players go?' Did they have to go to the PS4? No. So I'd like to see the PS4 give those kinds of fans something that will make them buy a PS4. Otherwise they might buy an XboxOne instead for its more 'arcadey' feel.

In a nutshell, though, I think Sony could do with a Jet Set Radio sequel to try to counteract Sunset Overdrive. The likes of Infamous, perhaps its closest equivalent, just isn't bright and carefree enough to be classed as the same genre.

Jet Set was never a huge seller but the Xbox sequel was one of my favourite games. And, unintentionally, it would 'get back' at Microsoft for getting Insomniac exclusivity (which I would guess will almost certainly not change) for their new game. (I don't blame Insomniac in the slightest by the way for wanting an XboxOne exclusive - Sony tend to do more story-focussed games, Microsoft do some story based games but MS also seem happier also doing games that are pure gameplay).

I'm going to be waiting till the back end of 2014 before I pick up a PS4, as right now there just aren't enough games for me to warrant buying it yet. However, if they were to announce that they re-acquired the rights to Crash Bandicoot and were to let Naughty Dog run with it, I'd be very excited.
